Description
The Cong Abbey is a fascinating historical monument dating back to the 7th century, located in a charming Irish village.
This site impresses with its medieval architecture with beautiful Gothic elements, particularly evident in the north portal of the church and the ornate doors leading into the monastery.
One of the most unusual attractions is the Monk's Fisherman's House, a stone hut built on a bridge over the Cong River, with a trapdoor that allows you to fish without going outside.
The surrounding area offers scenic walking trails through the Ard Na Gaoithe forest, where you can discover hidden caves and the Guinness Tower.
